The Egypt national football team have completed their preparations ahead of a crucial semi-final showdown against the Senegal national football team at the Africa Cup of Nations, currently taking place in Morocco.

The highly anticipated match will kick off at 7:00 pm on Wednesday, as Egypt aim to secure a place in the final of the continental tournament. Head coach Hossam Hassan wrapped up the team’s final training session on Tuesday, focusing on tactical discipline and finishing.

Egypt are expected to rely once again on their attacking duo Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush, who will lead the frontline against the reigning African champions. The partnership has proved effective throughout the tournament, most notably in the quarter-final win over Ivory Coast national football team, where both players scored in Egypt’s dramatic 3–2 victory.

Hassan has opted to maintain confidence in the Salah–Marmoush combination after their strong performances, as Egypt look to overcome a formidable Senegal side known for its physical strength and tactical organization.

With a place in the AFCON final at stake, Wednesday’s encounter is expected to be one of the tournament’s most intense and closely contested matches, drawing widespread attention from fans across Africa and the Arab world.
